Heterosexual Sodomy is A-OK with Scalia

[obamanut2012]

Just not the icky gay kind:

"WASHINGTON -- Justice Antonin Scalia says his method of interpreting the Constitution makes some of the most hotly disputed issues that come before the Supreme Court among the easiest to resolve.

Scalia calls himself a "textualist" and, as he related to a few hundred people who came to buy his new book and hear him speak in Washington the other day, that means he applies the words in the Constitution as they were understood by the people who wrote and adopted them.

So Scalia parts company with former colleagues who have come to believe capital punishment is unconstitutional. The framers of the Constitution didn't think so and neither does he.

Homosexual sodomy? Come on. For 200 years, it was criminal in every state," Scalia said at the American Enterprise Institute."

1. Easy for a fascist like himself...

Yeah he's a textualist, until he decided Bush needed to be installed as Prez because elections don't matter.

[obamanut2012]

3. If he is a texturalist, then he is also pro slavery

And anti suffrage. Which he probably is.

Also, the "Founding Fathers" didn't talk about abortion, because abortion wasn't illegal then.

5. Texturalist is code for bigot

It's a way to justify ignorance.

2. Those Old Sodomy Laws, Ma'am, Applied To Everyone

The 'use against nature' put heterosexuals in stir as well. The man is an ass.

4. That is why the military seldom used the Sodomy articles of the UCMJ against gays

they don't distinguish between heterosexual and homosexual acts and it was impossible to find a jury that wasn't guilty of the crime!

6. True, Sir

I remember a while back ( a real while back ) seeing stories about men doing time in Indiana for performing cunnilingus....

7. Not if you are in the military
